iMovie and GarageBand for iPad Go Live in App Store

In the description of iMovie you can read, that it is only for iPad 2. GarageBand should also be for iPad 1. But I'm not 100% sure!
You are correct in your thinking.

GLITCH;
I already own iMovie yet its not showing up under updates. When I try to manually repurchase it, I'm prompted to install 4.2.6... And I'm on an att iPhone 4.. WTF?

it works 100% and it's awesome. I can't wait to see how much better it works with ipad 2 - but with ipad 1, there's no lag (just slow loading but not even that slow).
everything works even when you tap hard, it will play hard!
Piano support? CoreMIDI?
While we know that you can plug in a guitar via an accessory plugged into the Dock Connector, can you do the same with a MIDI piano?
I recall iOS 4 introducing CoreMIDI and apps becoming available that support it. Is this the case with GarageBand?

I also didn't see an upgrade through my app list so i clicked on itunes store and it brought up the update, this was on my mac btw
After a few minutes it also showed up on my iPhone as an update. Downloading right now
There's now an update for iphone4/ipod touch retina. I still don't see why they can't put imovie on the ipad 1, the walkthrough video clearly states you can edit videos also shot on your iphone 4 or ipod touch, just put a big notice on the app store page for original ipad owners letting them know the app doesn't magically add a camera to their ipad 1. the ipod touch has the same amount of ram and a slower clocked a4 than the ipad 1 so don't tout specs as the reason.
Good thing I already have purchased iMovie before. Now I just have to wait for those gift cards to come in the mail for some iPad apps!
Sorry, I don't remember where I read it. But I did read that a reviewer successfully plugged in a "USB keyboard" and played it in GarageBand! I don't know if it was necessarily MIDI or what, but that's encouraging.
How does the touch sensitivity work? ie tap hard and it plays louder?
The screen isn't pressure sensitive is it? so presumably it just works on the fact that the surface area in contact with the screen is greater when you tap harder?
but what about people with fat fingers?

so does iMovie allow me to pull a video off my P&S camera via camera connection kit, edit it in iMovie and upload it to Flickr, youtube, mobile me?
or do I need to use the iPads camera or sync a movie through iTunes?

I just did a little more digging and I saw this article:

Pretty interesting read. And it mentions using an m-audio USB keyboard. So at least it sounds like there are options for connecting more than just a guitar.
iRig and Midi
Ok, quick go on original ipad + Garageband. iRig works (think amplitude might need to lower their prices for their apps!). Akai LPK25 USB keboard + camera connection kit works. This is going to be fun!
